Snowflake Challenge: Day 8

Challenge #8

Talk about a current fannish project (fic, art, vid, crochet, funko pop village) (that you are creating or enjoying)

Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Writing: I've written several thousand words in response to the various prompts I received for Challenge #3. (Thank you again, all!) Next to edit them into something postable and get started on the other prompts.

Minis: The various D&D and tabletop campaigns I play in have come out of hiatus with the start of 2024. And that means it's time to start painting new character minis!


This cast of characters includes my dryad swarm master druid (for a homebrew campaign), two tiefling arcane trickster rogues (for a second homebrew campaign and BG3, respectively), a human *mumblemumble* warlock (for the Second Homebrew Campaign offshoot), a couple bonus Gloomhaven minis, and a few campaignless minis that just seemed like they'd be fun projects.

I am not an organized, systematic, or technically knowledgeable mini painter. I buy paint colors that I like (hence the preponderance of greens, reddish purples, and metallics), and don't know anything about how to do washes or shadowing. (I know there are good yt tutorials and stuff about this, I just...haven't ever got around to watching them.)


That said, I'm pretty happy with how the backs of these minis came out, particularly the red cloaks, the stippling on the dryad's leaves, the cleric's hair, and the detailing on the back of the Gloomhaven mini, which was a bear to paint.

Once I finish painting the minis proper, I'll start adding the gravel, moss, grass, and so forth to the bases.
